Tandem: the high deposition rate using a multi-electrode system increases productivity substantially. By selecting different combinations of direct and alternating currents, the A6 Tandem Mastertrac can handle any type of welding work resulting in increased profitability. Options & Accessories • Weld mild steel and aluminium solid or cored wire by modifying an A6 Single Mastertrac with an easy conversion kit for Gas metal arc welding (GMAW). • Pre-set and control of welding parameters with the A2-A6 Process Controller PEK - a digital control system with display menus; 255 different weld sets can be stored.
